Copying applications over a partition

[Louis1611]

I run a dual boot Vista/XP. On my Vista partition, I have a program installed which I would like to have on XP as well. The problem is, the installer is not anywhere on the internet or on my hard drive. I need to get this program onto XP. I've tried copying the program files folder over, but to no avail. Any suggestions? Any would be appreciated.

You will need the install files. There's really no other way of getting a working installation on a new partition.

Perhaps if you posted the name and version of your program, someone can help you find it?

The program is a Sept 2006 CTP release of Microsoft Expression Graphic Designer. Any other releases post September 2006 lack the functionality that I require (i.e, the Vector B-Spline). Because its so specific, I can't find any download mirrors for the CTP release. This puts me in a very sticky situation. I NEED that B-Spline tool.

Seems like you need to reach into your wallet and buy some software. This might be a starting point: http://www.microsoft.com/expression/...l.aspx?key=web

=/. The new expression, according to some friends from DeviantART, does not have a B-Spline, which is the only reason why I need this specific CTP release from this specific Software.

You might try ebay; look here.

It wasn't a retail package, the Sept 2006 CTP. It was a free download from the Microsoft Site.

Okay, reviewing the CURRENT Expression Designer product page, Microsoft is advertising the product as having a B-spline tool????

Okay, now what the hell. So much for not having a B-Spline tool, I even downloaded the free trial and tested myself. There IS a B-Spline... FFS now I look like a complete retard. I know not to trust my mates on DA again >_>. Sorry for the idiocy i've caused T_T
